Lease check
Know what your lease asks for before you get quotes.
Upload your lease. We draft a preliminary make-good summary with clause references, and a person on our team reviews it before you rely on it.
What it does
- Finds the make-good, reinstatement, repair, cleaning, alterations and yield-up clauses
- Pulls out key facts: tenant, premises, start and expiry dates, notice and approval conditions
- Quotes each finding with the page and clause it came from, so you can check it
- Sorts findings into clear, needs checking, and not established by the documents
- Lists missing documents, such as fit-out approvals or a condition report
- Turns findings into a draft scope that contractors can quote on
What it doesn't do
- Give legal advice or tell you what your lease legally means
- Decide your final scope. You, your landlord and the contractor do that
- Judge hidden conditions, asbestos, structure or compliance from photos
- Replace a site inspection by the contractor
- Send anything to your landlord or contractors without you

Review and privacy
People stay in charge.
Human review gate
Assessments stay marked preliminary until someone on our team reviews them. Unclear clauses are escalated, and we suggest a lawyer where it matters.
Every finding is traceable
Findings link to the page and clause they came from. Each quoted reference is checked against your document, and any that can't be matched are flagged.
Private by default
Documents are stored privately and shared only with contractors invited to quote on your project. Documents are treated as untrusted input.
More detail: How we handle your documents.
Lease analysis questions
Is the lease analysis legal advice?
No. It is a preliminary summary of what the documents appear to say, with references so you can check them. Where a clause is unclear, we flag it and suggest you speak to a property lawyer.
Who sees my lease?
Your documents are stored privately. People on our team see them to review the assessment. Contractors only see what is shared with them when they are invited to quote on your project.
Does a person check the lease check?
Yes. The assessment stays marked as preliminary until a person on our team has reviewed it, and complex or high-risk leases always get a human review before matching.
What if I don't have my lease handy?
You can skip the upload and still get quotes. Contractors will ask about your lease requirements at inspection, and you can add the lease later.
What file types can I upload?
PDF, Word (DOCX), JPEG and PNG. Scanned pages are read with text recognition, which can make mistakes, so check the references.
